Answer:
The speaker shows how in the eighth month of waiting, she is sad to see the butterflies flying in pairs, as this reinforces the idea of loneliness that she feels.
Explanation:
"Changgan Memories" by Li Po is a poem about a young couple who had to split up after two years of marriage. The speaker of the poem is the wife who lives lonely and sad waiting for her husband to return. At every moment, the loneliness she feels becomes more intense, reaching the point that everything she looks at reminds her husband is far away.
After waiting for her husband for eight months, she feels sad to see the butterflies flying in pairs through the garden. The butterflies seem happy with each other's company, it makes her feel more sad and lonely. This can be seen by the lines:<em> "And now, in the Eighth-month, yellowing butterflies/ Hover, two by two, in our west-garden grasses/ And, because of all this, my heart is breaking."</em>
The correct answer is B) to explain that his attention and energy is still focused on the war.
<em>The purpose of this passage of President's Lincoln Second Inaugural Address was to explain that his attention and energy is still focused on the war.</em>
The Second Inaugural Address of President Abraham Lincoln was held on March 4, 1865. He shared his project to heal the nation's wound and unite the United States that were divided by the Civil War. Lincoln did not send a message of happiness because the time was sad for the US. But he had hope for the things to come. Unfortunately, he was assassinated 40 years after his second inauguration address.
The other options of the question were a) to explain that people are already acquainted with him, b) to explain his reasons to make a shorter inaugural speech, and d) to explain that he still has hope in the future.
Answer:
This is the book that I have found in the box; <em>whose </em>is it
Explanation:
by saying this <em>is</em> the book I have found in the box, we know that we will not be asking "where" is it (because it <em>is </em>here)
we are not asking "whom" is it, because that would mean we are asking about who the book is ('who' being a person; the book is not a person)
we are not asking "when" is it, because that is not grammatically correct or logical
so, we are asking "<em>whose </em>is it"
hope this helps!!
